Feminist Theory
An International Interdisciplinary Journal

Editors Gabriele Griffin Kingston University, UK, Rosemary Hennessy SUNY at 
Albany,
USA, Stevi Jackson University of York, UK and Sasha Roseneil University of
Leeds, UK

Feminist Theory is a new international interdisciplinary journal being
launched in April 2000 to provide a forum for critical analysis and
constructive debate within feminist theory. Feminist Theory will be
genuinely interdisciplinary and will reflect the diversity of feminism,
incorporating perspectives from across the broad spectrum of the humanities
and social sciences and the full range of feminist political and 
theoretical
stances.

The journal will promote:
· debate among theorists from diverse perspectives
· critical engagements with shifting disciplinary hierarchies within
feminist theory
· challenges to existing theoretical orthodoxies and conventional
definitions of theory
· empirically grounded theorizing work as well as more conceptual work
· writing which is politically engaged and which explores links between
theory and practice
· the crossing of theoretical and disciplinary boundaries

Themes to be covered in early issues include: · What counts as feminist 
theory?
· Agency in theory
· New materialist feminisms
· Between difference and gender
· The cultural and the material

Interchanges
In addition to longer articles, Feminist Theory will publish short think
pieces, comments on past articles and theoretical reflections on topical
issues. Readers will be encouraged to respond to these contributions, thus
fostering ongoing debate and exchanges of ideas.

Reviews
Feminist Theory will include book reviews and review articles which set two
or more recent books within the context of past debates.
